| Sekander Badsha | Hi there, I'm relatively new to Wordpress development having mainly used plugins for my needs. I don't really understand how a function or a hook works or is called by workdpress, I just see them being used and know that I need to access these features. I have a function which sets a new users Display Name and NickName to be FIRSTNAME LASTNAME just after registration. This function works when I add a new user in the Admin panel. However when the user register through WPUF it does not work. I assume that my function is not being called, or is called before the user exists. When I reviewed the documentation I see there is likely a way I can call this function from WPUF also. What I need is help and guidance to figure out how to 'code' the function and hook to work. I have the function in my functions.php and is as follows: class myUsers { static function init() { // Change the user's display name after insertion add_action( 'user_register', array( __CLASS__, 'change_display_name' ) ); } static function change_display_name( $user_id ) { $user = get_userdata( $user_id ); $name = sprintf( '%s %s', $user->first_name, $user->last_name ); $args = array( 'ID' => $user_id, 'display_name' => $name, 'nickname' => $name ); wp_update_user( $args ); } } I assume I need to use the action wpuf_after_register, but I don't understand where I code this what the parameters need to be when I use it. If I am not correct with this assumption, or there is an easier way to make this work I would love to learn about it. ttfn Jevon |
